Characterization 0f solid-liquid adsorption systems by using Gaussian energy distribution

Theoretical foundations of the isotherm equations derived for adsorption from binary liquid mixtures composed of molecules of different sizes on heterogeneous surfaces characterized by Gaussian energy distribution are discussed. On the basis of numerical simulation studies the correlation between adsorption parameters of the equations in question and the parameters of the Gaussian energy distribution are established. These studies allow characterization of the Gaussian-type adsorbents on the basis of excess adsorption data.
